[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It isn't about the punishments, its about the constant pushing for her to do things that are a struggle.  She disobeys because you are setting her up for failure.

over and over again: ease up on the requirements; let her do her homework alone and if she screws up let the teacher handle it and if the teacher doesn't handle it, get an IEP or a stronger IEP.  let her have fun.  Let her have her own space.[/quote]

She has an IEP.  We have attended countless meetings and have the strongest/best IEP possible.  I do not think it is fair for either the teacher or DD to have the entire sheet done wrong.[/quote]

This is precisely what the teacher should see.  if she gets an entire sheet wrong, the teacher should see that.  It isn't "fair" to your DD to keep that from the teachers.  This is something people are writing over and over again.  I think some posters are being unfair to you by twisting the words you use to describe your DD.  I don't doubt that you love her very much.  But you are being resistent to very simple advice that is being posted over and over again: Do not correct her homework.  Let her have space to do whatever she wants, even if it involves reading junk and eating (some) junk.  Stop going nuclear with the punishments.  Ease up on the constant surveillance.  Get a thorough evaluation.

Why are you being resistant to these steps?[/quote]
